Graphic designer

If this was what you used to do, it lends itself perfectly to working from home especially if you already have the programmes required such as Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, Dreamweaver and InDesign to name a few. If you're new to the industry, play around with alternatives which don't cost as much as Gimp and Pixlr.

You can do courses in graphic design too - have a look at Hot Courses for ideas. Experiment with ideas and create a portfolio of work which you can show to prospective employers.
